His tongue in cheek condemnation of mj refers to the case of the woman who 
puffed a little mj while pregnant, and then promptly lost custody of both
children when her newborn tested positive for it.  The children's father
lost custody as well.  --- Art

ONLY ALCOHOL WAS CULPRIT

Per the Dec. 23 Chronicle story, "Mom arrested after test finds tot
intoxicated," a 16-month-old boy, a half-clothed and unconscious
33-year-old mother and three other children -- aged 12, 13 and 15 -- were
all intoxicated. Thank goodness the culprit was alcohol and not marijuana!
